2018 Honda Accord: The Sedan You’ll Want Instead of a Crossover

I HAVE LEARNED over the years that not everyone shares my fascination with engineering minutiae. My wife, for example, will gaze into the mid-distance with a bemused, Melania-like smile until I stop talking. Anyhoo…

In particular, my observations of aluminum versus steel vehicle construction have been known to clear a room. Yet I cannot resist on the occasion of the redesigned 2018 Honda Accord, an ordinary car made extraordinary thanks to clever body engineering and some of the world’s smartest steel.
